This is our 2nd
week using it, and we’ve already gotten our first sale -- project San Carlos Building Division, where we
made $8,000 in profit.

Jeff, CSOArchitect, CA

Knowing about a
project as it’s developing allows us to get in early [with] the owner and the architect before and
during the design phase. We have been able to take the project off the street or at very least influence
the specification.
